Career Change Advice
Hi All,
I’ve been scoping out/considering a change in career to finance from my current career doing Monte Carlo/Statistical Modelling of Nuclear Reactors.
I have a Masters Degree in Physics from the University of Southampton and I got a First.
I will shortly become a Chartered Physicist.
I have 7 years of experience of computational modelling in Fortran and Python.
I do not have any direct experience currently in the financial industry.
I have been considering, given these skills, becoming a quantitative analyst/developer - but I have a few questions.
Given the above, would becoming a quant be possible?
Is there a role within the finance industry which I have not thought of, which would be better suited to my skill set?
What are the hours realistically like for a quant?
If you work a hybrid pattern as a quant, how often do you go into the office? Could I work remotely the majority of the time or not?
Any suggestions regarding how to potentially enter this industry given my position would be helpful.
Thanks,
Andrew
